Creative Play Quick Tip: Camp In!

Make your next sleepover a camping adventure . . . indoors! Set up a tent and sleeping bags in the living room or playroom, then add special touches to fill your campsite with fun. Add balloons to bounce around the tent, provide flashlights for shadow puppets, pack some trail mix in single-serve baggies . . . and don’t forget the s’mores!

For late-night gab sessions, all those sleeping bags are great places to hide conversation-starters. A cool choice for big kids: The Box Girls Boxes of Questions. Slip the sturdy question cards under pillows, and your happy campers will be giggling long past bedtime!
